January 21st 2009
We made it through the weekend and we were pretty happy that there was little to report. Andrew did have some gagging and a little nausea but nothing too bad. He had a great day Monday with his Vincristine Chemotherapy and Occupational Therapy and he ate very well too! However, today was not so great, Andrew lost his breakfast and didn’t really want to eat after that. We are going to try some new medication to help with his nausea so hopefully we have less gagging and vomiting. Amazingly Andrew is still as happy as ever after his nausea is gone, and wants to get back to whatever he was doing. He has such a great attitude!
I have received an updated schedule from the doctors office, so it looks like without any illness getting in the way, Andrew will get Vincristine Chemotherapy next Monday and then 2 weeks off and admitted on February 23rd for his next round of Chemo cocktail.
Thank you for the wonderful notes you leave and for checking in, we will update soon!

Hi Taylor & Andrew!!!
Val is almost there and I wish I could be there too. Cailin and Brayden are both sad that they couldn’t go too. We all love you so much!
Love,
